Marriage Celebrant & Master of Ceremonies Package

Your marriage ceremony signifies the official commencement of wedding day festivities as you legally unite with your loved one. I’ll help craft this significant milestone in line with your vision. Then, in my role as Master of Ceremonies (MC), I’ll elevate the celebration, ensuring it’s engaging, entertaining, and imbued with a vibrant atmosphere. The outcome will be an unforgettable experience for you, your family, and friends.

What’s Included

• Initially, I will provide you with the links and information essential for filling out the preliminary legal marriage document, referred to as the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM). I can witness your signatures on this document during a face-to-face meeting. Alternatively, if you are not local, you have the option to have the NOIM witnessed by one of the specified individuals. It is imperative to have this completed document submitted to me at least one calendar month before your wedding day.
• Following this, we will arrange a meeting either in person or via Zoom to delve into your vision, allowing me to grasp the type of ceremony you envision.
• Next, I’ll ask you to fill out an information form, providing more details about yourself and specifying what you want to be included in your ceremony.
• I will then embark on creating your ceremony, delving into who you are and incorporating your personal emotions, words, and desires. This process will result in a wedding ceremony that is unique and authentically reflects both of you.
• If you opt for personalised vows, I’ll be there to help you craft them.
• Having an optional rehearsal is highly recommended. It ensures that everyone, especially you, is well-informed about the sequence and details of your wedding ceremony, providing clarity on how it will unfold on the big day.
• On your wedding day, I will stand by your side as both of you come together in one of the oldest and most significant ceremonies in the world: the union of marriage.
• After you have tied the knot, I will present you with the marriage certificate signed by you, your witnesses, and myself during the ceremony. Additionally, you’ll receive a copy of the ceremony.
• Following your wedding, I will electronically submit your marriage details to the NSW Department of Births, Deaths, and Marriages and then dispatch the official paperwork by mail. Should you wish to obtain a copy of your marriage certificate from BDM, I can also handle the lodgment process on your behalf. If you’re planning to change your surname, this document will be essential. Please note the department of BDM currently charges $65 for this document)
• As your marriage celebrant, I will arrive at the ceremony venue approximately 60 to 30 minutes before the scheduled start of the ceremony.

What’s Included

• I will aid you in creating an engaging reception program that blends timeless traditions with innovative games.
• I am available to provide assistance and support to those delivering speeches
• I will help you put together a guest photo session list for after the ceremony and be there to help the photographer coordinate the order so that this runs smoothly.
• I will share instructions with your guests on what has been arranged for them between the ceremony and reception.
• Throughout the evening, I will maintain communication with your reception service providers, including the DJ, band, photographers, and wedding planner/coordinator or venue manager. This ensures they are well-informed about the timings and scheduled activities, guaranteeing the smooth adherence to your timeline.
• I will work closely with the venue manager or mobile food services to ensure the smooth execution of food and drink service.
• I will announce the arrival of the wedding party, manage speeches, organise activities, and supervise traditional elements such as cake cutting and the couple’s first dance.
• The Master of Ceremony service will start 15 minutes before the scheduled reception and last for 3 hours. If you desire an extension beyond the initial 3 hours, this can be arranged in advance at a rate of $79 per 60 minutes or part thereof.
